The Wendish Crusade of 1147, one of the Northern Crusades and a
part of the Second Crusade, took place at a critical phase in the
evolution of crusading rhetoric. The initiators and apologists of
the campaign employed rhetorical devices to justify the occupation
of a region and conversion of a population under the auspices of a
crusade. A detailed examination of the primary sources shows that
the justification of a crusade against apostates was not only a
German endeavour, or the pope's will, but a political reality of
the twelfth century. Therefore, the attitude of the papacy is shown
to be reactive rather than proactive.
